The two biggest credit card issuers in the United States generated more than one third of the overall market's purchase volume in 2023. (JPMorgan) Chase led the ranking for several years in a row, reaching a purchase volume of 1.2 trillion U.S. dollars during that year. The bank also ranked as the top merchant acquirer in the United States. American Express, or AmEx, followed closely, with a purchase volume of slightly over one trillion U.S. dollars.

Supplementary notes
The figures have been taken from several publications and, in certain cases, calculated by Statista. The source sometimes rounded figures, and sometimes did not.
The source does not provide specific brand figures per issuer. The source effectively provides a total for, for example, Bank of America, not individual Visa or Mastercard figures for Bank of America.
